Just exactly how important is "belly" heat for a snake?
I have read a number of things that say it's ok to use ALL
top heat, and some that say belly heat is a must
At this point, I have a daytime temp of 86F, all from top heat.
The temp in the room at night has been about 70F, give or take
a degree.
Inside the tank there is a difference from one side to the other
(between the hot spot and the other side) of about 10 degrees.
I'm going shopping today, for another heat source and another
hide.
